Review of 'Splendid' on 'Goodreads'

1.5

The hero in this book is like Anthony Bridgerton turned up to 11 with zero redeeming qualities. The heroine was pretty decent though even if she was a hilarious fiery-tempered American with red hair and ~violet~ eyes.

A fair bit more interested in her cousin Belle, though.
